If there's anything that would make Botticelli's "La Primavera" or Titian's "Venus of Urbino" more worthy of our look, it would definitely be the inclusion of a massive orange tabby cat. Now, this opinion has drowned in a series of interviews and studies, but by happening upon talented Russian artist Svetlana Petrova's "Fat Cat Art." In these classic artworks you will miss a chubby reclining kitty.

The prove is below: According to Artist statement "I lost my mother in 2008 and she left me Zarathustra [the cat]," Petrova explained to the BBC. "I got horrible depression after her death and for two years I was unable to do something creative. By chance a friend asked me 'why don't you make an art project with your cat because he's so funny.'"
